Cantuta, the national flower of Peru, is about the Inca Empire torn
apart by civil war and foreign invaders while an Inca Prince fights
to regain his kingdom. The unexpected death of the reigning king
paves the way for a conflict between two brothers that divides the
empire in two. Atahualpa rules the northern parts of the Empire and
Huascar assumes the position of the King of Cuzco, the southern
region of the Inca Empire. Atahualpa; however, believes that he
alone should rule the land and that will only happen if Cuzco is
his and Huascar is no longer in power. Atahualpa's attack takes
Cuzco by surprise, thus giving him a huge advantage over Huascar.
Huascar is caught but his younger brother, Manco, who is also the
crown prince of Cuzco, escapes along with his sister, Vira. Manco
discovers that Atahualpa formed an alliance with the invading
Spanish conquistadors, or White Strangers. The Spaniards; however,
are only using Atahualpa in order to conquer the Inca Empire.
Atahualpa later pays for this betrayal when the Spaniards reveal
their true purpose. With the White Strangers trying to control his
people and his kingdom, Manco takes a stand against his new enemies
to recover the land that rightfully belongs to the Inca and should
be ruled by the rightful Inca King. Amidst treachery and violence,
the Inca, the Pizarro brothers, their women, and the church try to
press their agendas while the people of Peru struggle to survive.
